I have a question, do you think Adulthood is actually a scam?
Well, the information released by Nigerian Box movie speaks volume. I mean how is it that Moana 2 has made a debut of 106.5 million naira in ticket sales.
I am sure we all know that animated movie are not only for children like some Nigerians would claim It seems like Moana had become a animation widely accepted by Nigerians both old and young.
What can I say, I am an animation lover myself. For once, it was thrilling to watch an animated film where the princess did not even have her prince. I am not saying, the pursuit for a Mister right is wrong in itself. Instead I got to watch an heroine who was fighting for what she believed. Trust me, it felt refreshing.
Maybe every parent could relate to their teenage daughter suddenly growing wings and not agreeing with them, or every child agreed that sometimes if they were left to do what they wanted, it probably would result into something great. Is it the beautiful ocean scenery or the intriguing culture that is amusing? Even Te fiti was so gorgeous. I have so many theories, but I am sure every Moana lovers has theirs too
If this gist still confuse you, let me introduce you to the movie Moana.
Moana is an animated film that tells the story of the girl called Moana. Her people, Polynesia worshipped the goddess of nature Te Fiti. Moana was the daughter of the chief of a coastal village and was enthusiastic. You can tell she had a lot of energy. Maui the shape shifting God stole Te futi’s heart to give humans the power to create. That is actually some cool stuff right there.
The ocean choose Moana to return the heart of Te Fiti. And like every leader, This call made it impossible for Moana to sit still. So irrespective of her father’s reservation, Moana left in the end.
Maybe this is the sign you asked for
Go on adventures, Do it even if they don’t support you.
Cause it all came out good in the end. Moana did achieve her goal and Te fiti got her heart.
I hope I have been able to convince and not confuse you that Moana is a great movie. If my explanation did not convince. You need to hear the songs The musicals were eccentric.
So the inner excitement felt by Moana’s lovers at the announcements of a Sequel could not be hidden. Everyone was curious to know what the Sequel holds.
Disney deserve their flowers for a strategic marketing strategy. Before the movie released, consumers already consumed a lot of content on Moana 2. Talk about understanding your customers. The characters also showed up at Disney parks, giving us good access to them over and over again. Have I spoken about the premiere at O’hau? It was a blast.
Whether critics or Lovers, Moana has grossed 600 million dollars globally. This is an indication that the story of the Polynesians was truly loved and accepted.
